Classification of Smooth Congruences with a Fundamental Curve
We give a classification and a construction of all smooth (n − 1)-dimensional varieties of lines in P verifying that all their lines meet a curve. This also gives a complete classification of (n− 1)-scrolls over a curve contained in G(1, n). Introduction. The geometry of the line, i.e. the study of the line as the main element, was a very popular subject at the end of last century and beginning...
متن کاملInfinite Families of Strange Partition Congruences for Broken 2-diamonds
In 2007 George E. Andrews and Peter Paule [1] introduced a new class of combinatorial objects called broken k-diamonds. Their generating functions connect to modular forms and give rise to a variety of partition congruences. In 2008 Song Heng Chan proved the first infinite family of congruences when k = 2. In this note we present two non-standard infinite families of broken 2-diamond congruence...
متن کاملNew special curves and their spherical indicatrices
From the view of differential geometry, a straight line is a geometric curve with the curvature κ(s) = 0. A plane curve is a family of geometric curves with torsion τ(s) = 0. Helix is a geometric curve with non-vanishing constant curvature κ and non-vanishing constant torsion τ [4]. The helix may be called a circular helix or W -curve [9]. It is known that straight line (κ(s) = 0) and circle (κ...
متن کاملDuality Properties of Indicatrices of Knots
The bridge index and superbridge index of a knot are important invariants in knot theory. We define the bridge map of a knot conformation, which is closely related to these two invariants, and interpret it in terms of the tangent indicatrix of the knot conformation. Using the concepts of dual and derivative curves of spherical curves as introduced by Arnold, we show that the graph of the bridge...
متن کاملOrtho-Circles of Dupin Cyclides
We study the set of circles which intersect a Dupin cyclide in at least two different points orthogonally. Dupin cyclides can be obtained by inverting a cylinder, or cone of revolution, or by inverting a torus. Since orthogonal intersection is invariant under Möbius transformations we first study the ortho-circles of cylinders/cones of revolution and tori and transfer the results afterwards.
